Dennis stared blankly at Yan. Unconcerned, formal applause poured down on Dennis. That bastard Guiterie even winked at Dennis. Dennis, just like with Vittorio, wanted to smash his nose in. Amidst the students chattering busily amongst themselves about the regular performance, Laurent was glaring only at Dennis. Dennis, too, did not avoid his discontented gaze and watched him. The look in his eyes, boiling with hatred and anger toward Vittorio, and suspicion toward Dennis, was not half…- 102.4 K • Completed
- Dennis stared blankly at Yan. If Vittorio Bonaparte was a sadistic psychopath, Yan was entirely inscrutable. There was no way his motive for showing such incomprehensible kindness was pure collegiality. Moreover, the reason he was even giving meaningful advice to Dennis, who was suspected of being a prime suspect, was... Dennis suddenly recalled the events of a week ago. It was also Yan who had pulled Dennis from the mire as he was grinding his teeth, soaked in Vittorio's urine and bizarre…

- As he tumbled across the old wooden floor, Dennis stared blankly up at Vittorio. His vision, which had momentarily blurred, gradually cleared. Vittorio sometimes used a very friendly and affectionate tone, but his expression was usually merciless. Even now, he could not read his face. Judging by his unwavering eyes, he was lacking something human. Noble things like compassion, conscience, and morality... His testimony was entirely false. It was Vittorio who had been abusing a fellow student named…

- A sudden chill went down Dennis’s spine. The time he had arranged to meet Viollet Dey was slipping further and further away. Dennis, pushing the barre away, placed both hands on the windowsill. He checked above before below, but it was quiet. Desperately praying that it wasn't so, just as Dennis looked down at the ground. “Dennis Kahler.” Someone swiftly grabbed the nape of Dennis’s neck and slammed him against the windowsill. His crushed left cheek and cheekbone throbbed. Dennis let out a…

- Jan held up both palms harmlessly and took a step back from Dennis, making a jest. “I won’t do anything improper today. More importantly, I’ve heard some interesting information.” “What is it?” “You had a meal ‘together’ with the students?” “There was no elegant service that brought meals all the way to my room.” “Oh… Mr. Kahler. Don’t be surprised. The faculty members use a different dining hall.” “Pardon?” “Most of the students are sensitive…

- “Dennis Kahler.” Vittorio whispered Dennis’s name quietly. He wasn’t calling out to him. He was merely mumbling it inside his maw, as if chewing and swallowing Dennis’s name. Dennis, now completely off the bed, avoided Vittorio’s gaze. To mistake Eric for Vittorio… Eric, who was now deceased by Dennis’s hand, and Vittorio were different even in silhouette. It was hard to believe that a body as monstrously built as that could perform ballet. He was closer to a well-trained man of the…

- Dennis suddenly felt a chill starting from the soles of his feet. The students of Volle were mostly those who had been thoroughly excluded from central high society and the duties of their families. Also, their interests were focused within the school, so he had been conceited in thinking they would naturally have no particular information about Dennis. It was only then that he realized how foolish he had been. It was possible that from the moment Dennis was appointed here, the entire student body,…

- And so, the boy could not give the man the answer he wanted. Because it was the first and last promise he had made with his father, and it was a sort of last will. Besides, even though he was still dull and not fully grown, he could predict this much. The terrifying repercussions it would bring upon aristocratic society if the boy were to tell him ‘the location of the key.’ When the boy shook his head despite the numerous beatings, the man was thoroughly infuriated. Lifting the boy, who was…

- Yan closed his eyes and spread his arms wide, as if the thin, metallic sound were a hymn. In the empty classroom, there were only him and Dennis. And this was the most plausible peace that Yan pursued. “I’ll give you a chance.” “…” “Serve me.” Dennis recalled the day he licked Quachi’s instep. He had stomped on the young Dennis’s head until he finally burst something on his forehead. With his blood-soaked face, Dennis had licked Quachi’s shoe. The hard, disgusting sole…

- He didn’t know what expression to make even as he looked down at the skinned rat’s flesh. At Dennis’s static reaction, someone jeered. Dennis grabbed it with his bare hand. The fishy smell of the beast and its glutinous texture were felt fully in his palm. When he held it up, the students burst out laughing as if they had been waiting. Dennis, still holding the rat’s carcass, approached the student in the front row who had the most despicable expression. He was looking up at Dennis with…
